There was all sorts of debate, I believe, over what to show and what not to show. Must be some pretty scary stuff in there that we won't see here if this is what they decided to declassify.
Time to go in and get this over with.
BTW, Screw the French.

It's not conclusions, but facts. Now being backed up.
To: TankerKC
I suppose Iraq's response will be that we fabricated the tape and conversations, eh?
Probably best response is, if we were going to fake stuff, it would sound better....not this somewhat dull circumstantial stuff....
"Mahmoud, have you hidden the illegal deadly chemical weapons from the inspectors like we talked about earlier" etc.
To: Ragtime Cowgirl
No I think they were getting it set up. But now its up and running. I posted a breaking news thread

HI ALL FRIENDS...
No matter what is said by Powell here, the peaceniks at all cost will not be satisfied. I'm not sure they would be so even if a nuke blew up at their grandmothers' ...

They expected us not to listen in?
No. These people work for a thug. An ambitious, dangerous thug, but a thug, nonetheless. As such, their operational security must be comparable to that of a Mob Family at an Italian Social Club gathering.
If Bin Laden were running Iraq, he wouldn't make these mistakes. Fortunately, Binnie is dead.
Be Seeing You,
Chris

Fischer looks bored and drunk. If he's bored, that presumably means he was already aware of this information, probably as a result of briefings U.S. officials have given him. But they didn't persuade him to change his mind, so I doubt if he'll change it now.

Powell asking if the inspectors have to search all the scientists houses in order to get enough evidence to convince the UN
